I am having trouble mounting my dos D: drive from freeBSD (2.0.5)

hard drive one is 730MB, and is C: in dos, and is where i boot win95/dos from.

hard drive two is 730MB, and is partitioned into 300MB (dos D:) and the rest for
freeBSD.  when I try 'mount_msdos /dev/wd1s1 /dosd', it says, 'mount_msdos: mount:
invalid argument'  What am i doing wrong?  C: mounts fine using 'mount_msdos /dev/wd0s1
/dosc'

Thanks,
Ryan
